Niantic recently announced that they will discontinue the support for 32-bit Android devices starting from August 2020. But after the backlash from players, & PoGo community, Niantic has postponed this decision without confirming any new date.

Niantic has made several changes to the game in the past three months in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. As the lockdown is still effective in some parts of the world, many players are unable to go out of their homes to places where spawns are better in their area.

Also, many players who live in rural areas often see very fewer spawns & they miss out on the daily catch streak. Well, Niantic has announced good news for players who are currently experiencing these issues amid pandemic.

Daily Guaranteed Pokemon encounters & Daily Free boxes have been announced for the game. Both of these features will be available to a limited group of trainers. Under the Daily Guaranteed encounters, Professor Willow will visit a small number of trainers.

If you are a part of this test, he will inform you that he has been working on some special kind of Incense. However, this Incense will not appear in your Item bag, but it will be activated once, Professor Willow gives it to you.

It will attract a Pokemon once a day, & that will be exclusive to you. So make sure to check-in the game every day. Another feature that is arriving for trainers is Daily Free Boxes. Under this feature, a limited number of trainers will be able to get a free box of items.

If you are part of this test, the shop button will display a notification whenever a Daily Free box is available. To get it, you just need to head to the shop & claim the box in the free section.

Apart from this, Zekrom made a debut in the game on Tuesday, June 16, 2020, at 1 pm PDT. It is now available as a Tier 5 Raid Boss. In addition, the Solstice event has also gone live in many locations of the world, you get its more details by heading here.
